Join leading practitioners and community advocates to share ideas and build a movement for stronger local leadership in the creation of great neighbourhoods, as we launch Round 2 of The Neighbourhood Project.

Great neighbourhoods are thriving and resilient places. When locals work together to initiate neighbourhood projects, revitalise streets, and transform public spaces into friendly, functional and green places, it’s a step towards a great neighbourhood; this is community-led placemaking.

Communities want to do these sorts of activities, and local governments, developers and other land holders are keen to offer their support, but it’s notalways easy.

Together, we can share more effective ways of working together in this emerging area of city-making practice.

Register to attend Great Neighbourhoods 2017 – tickets are heavily subsidised, and free for community leaders – and please submit an EOI on the website if you have a project, tool or policy that you’d like to share. Visit the website to learn more.

PLEASE NOTE: A limited number of free tickets are available for community groups. Email us at [email protected]designstudio.com.au with details about your group to get the access code.

Great Neighbourhoods 2017 is hosted by CoDesign Studio as part of The Neighbourhood Project. Come along to learn how communities can apply for Round 2, and hear the experiences and learnings from Round 1’s participants.

About Permablitz Melbourne

Welcome to Permablitz Melbourne - where we get together and have fun learning about, designing and implementing suburban permaculture systems. Our focus is edible gardens, and our ultimate aim is to make the suburbs edible enough such that should food become unaffordable, we don’t even notice.
